摘要:
A control system for an automatic transmission of an internal combustion engine installed on an automotive vehicle measures a duration over which the automatic transmission continues to be in a speed position. Downshift of the speed position of the transmission to a lower speed position is inhibited if the measured duration does not exceed a predetermined time period, when it is determined that the automotive vehicle is in a predetermined decelerating condition.

In a control system for controlling motor vehicles in such a manner that the drive force of the vehicle is determined by the accelerator pedal stroke and the vehicle speed, the fuel consumption is minimized by appropriately selecting the gear ratio of the power transmission system under each current operating condition. In particular, the present invention accounts for the slip ratio of the lock-up clutch as well as the transmission efficiency of the torque converter by noting the fact that the lock-up clutch operates under semi-tight conditions as well as under tight and loose conditions.

An air-fuel ratio control system for an internal combustion engine has a catalytic converter arranged in an exhaust passage. A maximum oxygen storage amount indicative of the maximum amount of oxygen that can be stored in the catalytic converter is calculated. The air-fuel ratio of a mixture supplied to the engine is forcibly oscillated at a predetermined frequency and a predetermined amplitude. At least one of the predetermined frequency and the predetermined amplitude is changed at a predetermined rate of change. A predetermined rate of change of the at least one of the predetermined frequency and the predetermined amplitude is set in dependence on the maximum oxygen storage amount to thereby secure the maximum purification rate of the catalytic converter.

A control system for an internal combustion engine with an automatic transmission having a torque converter, and a lock-up device. When gear shifting of the automatic transmission is carried out, the output torque of the engine is increased so as to reduce a shock caused by the gear shifting. The engaging force of the lock-up device is changed in response to the increase of the output torque.
摘要:
An ignition timing control method for an internal combustion engine, which controls the ignition timing, on the basis of a basic ignition timing value determined as a function of operating parameters of the engine. When a detected parameter value indicative of engine temperature is lower than a predetermined value, a correction variable for the basic ignition timing value is determined based upon detected parameter values indicative of engine temperature and engine load magnitude, to correct the basic ignition timing value thereby. Ignition of the mixture is effected at a timing according to the corrected basic ignition timing value. Preferably, when detected engine rotational speed is lower than a predetermined value lower than the engine idling speed or when it is higher than a predetermined high rotational speed value, the correction of the basic ignition timing value by the correction variable is prohibited.

A controller for an internal combustion engine capable of performing a compression ignition operation. The internal combustion engine includes a combustion chamber, and a fuel injector for injecting fuel directly in the combustion chamber. The controller includes: an air pressure detecting unit configured to detect at least one of an air pressure and an exhaust air pressure; and a fuel injection control unit configured to actuate the fuel injector to control a fuel injection timing according to a detected result by the air pressure detecting unit. The fuel injection control unit puts the fuel injection timing forward as the detected result by the air pressure detecting unit is lowered.

An air-fuel ratio control system for an internal combustion engine includes an air-fuel ratio sensor for detecting the air-fuel ratio of exhaust gases from the engine. An ECU estimates the air-fuel ratio of a mixture supplied to each of the cylinders cylinder by cylinder in response to an output from the air-fuel ratio sensor, by using an observer based on a model representative of the behavior of the exhaust system. Cylinder-by-cylinder air-fuel ratio control amounts corresponding respectively to the cylinders are calculated for carrying out feedback control of the air-fuel ratio of the mixture such that each of the estimated air-fuel ratio is converged to a desired value. One of the cylinder-by-cylinder air-fuel ratio control amounts corresponding to one of the cylinders is held at a predetermined value, and it is determined whether relationships in value between ones of the cylinder-by-cylinder air-fuel ratio control amounts corresponding respectively to cylinders other than the one cylinder and a plurality of predetermined determination values meet a predetermined determination pattern. When the relationships meet the predetermined determination pattern, it is determined that the response speed of the air-fuel ratio sensor has changed.

An air-fuel ratio control system for an internal combustion engine includes an air-fuel ratio sensor arranged in the exhaust system, for detecting the air-fuel ratio of exhaust gases from the engine. An ECU calculates an air-fuel ratio control amount, based on the output from the air-fuel ratio sensor, by using an adaptive controller having an adaptive parameter-adjusting mechanism for adjusting adaptive parameters, such that the air-fuel ratio of a mixture supplied to the engine is converged to a desired air-fuel ratio, and controls the air-fuel ratio of the mixture in a feedback manner, according to the calculated air-fuel ratio control amount. The adaptive parameter-adjusting mechanism calculates a parameter corresponding to an integral term of the air-fuel ratio control amount, and limit-checks a value of the parameter corresponding to the integral term so as to fall within a predetermined limit range.
摘要:
A cylinder-by-cylinder air-fuel ratio-estimating system for an internal combustion engine includes an air-fuel ratio sensor arranged in the exhaust system of the engine, at a confluent portion of the exhaust system. The air-fuel ratio of a mixture supplied to each of the cylinders of the engine is estimated based on an output from the air-fuel ratio sensor, by using an observer for observing the internal operative state of the exhaust system based on a model representative of the behavior of the exhaust system. A gain for use in the estimation of the air-fuel ratio of the mixture supplied to each of the cylinders is estimated by the observer according to operating conditions of the engine.
